Chronicles of Twatrick: The derangement continues ...

Over at his Twitter account, undischarged bankrupt and man-child on the run Patrick Ross accuses me of obsessively examining all of his literary works for years because I used the acronym "AC" to refer to the recent anonymous commenter at this blog, since Patrick apparently dedicated a 2019 short story to "AC" and thinks I chose that acronym to be deliberately provocative:

Uh, I chose "AC" because it's short for "Anonymous Commenter."

It's embarrassing that I had to explain that.

P.S. After all these years, Patrick still does not understand what constitutes defamation. That's just sad.

P.P.S. Self-proclaimed literary giant Patrick Ross used the phrase "poured over" to describe studying something intently and with great concentration. Let that level of illiteracy sink in.

Chronicles of Twatrick: The meltdown continues apace ...

One of my confidential informants tells me that, over at his Twitter "Outlaw Tory" account, undischarged bankrupt and homeless financial fugitive Patrick Ross is blar-har-har'ing it up over the last few posts at this blog, implying yet again that he is somehow besting me in this head-to-head competition as to who owns a better house and a nicer car and is not personally bankrupt, etc, etc. Patrick seems particularly incensed over the claims of anonymous commenter "AC" as to his problematic legal status in terms of not having a valid driver's license or valid car insurance and so on, so let's clarify a few things.

First, none of AC's claims have been accompanied by verification; however, having said that, I will say that AC's claims are at least consistent with the facts before me. Let me explain.

AC claims that the estate of the late, intellectually-damaged Ken Ross is currently being disputed. While I have no evidence of that, it does square with the puzzling fact that, after all this time, Casa Ross has not gone on the market as far as I know. One possibility is that the house was simply handed over to one of the children but, if that's true, it certainly wasn't to Patrick, who clearly spends all of his time on the road. So either the house has gone to one of the other ditchbilly siblings or -- as AC suggested -- everything is still tied up in some sort of squabbling between those drooling inbreds.

Following on that, if Patrick is not living there and is effectively residing in Alberta, then it does make sense that he should have transferred over his D/L and car registration to Alberta; otherwise, it seems only logical that it's not technically valid right now. Again, no proof, but well-reasoned speculation.

I did start to read Patrick's bloviating but got bored almost immediately and gave up; the only value all of that screeching has is to eventually put it all in the front of the court to demonstrate how Patrick -- when he argues that he just couldn't find the time to proceed with his idiotic, meritless lawsuit against me -- always seems to have the time to tweet hours worth of dumbass stupid. Which is one of the successful arguments I made when I filed to dismiss his 2014 bankruptcy appeal -- that he always had the time to bloviate on social media but never to move his appeal along. Even the judge made that finding in his ruling against Patrick, kicking Patrick's long-moldering appeal to the curb.

In any event, it seems that Patrick (now in his mid-40s) has learned nothing since I sued him 15 years ago. While I have been doing fine in terms of car and home and job and relationship, Patrick has no apparent home, definitely no romantic relationship, a crappy job that requires outdoor work in northern Alberta in the winter, and a vehicle that may not even be legally registered or insured.

So, sure, he's winning. Whatever.

Chronicles of Twatrick: WTF is going on with that estate?

While I have no confirmation of the numerous claims made by recent anonymous commenter "AC" reproduced in the last couple of posts, there is one claim that caught my attention -- that the disposition of the estate of the late, deranged lunatic Ken Ross is currently being disputed. And although I have no evidence of this, I have for a while been curious as to why that property never went on the market; there are numerous online real estate search engines that will tell you if a property is listed and, whenever I checked, Casa Ross was always "OFF MARKET." This struck me as odd since I had assumed that part of the will would dictate that the house be sold and the proceeds divvied up among that passel of squalling ditchbillies. That never happened, but the suggestion that things are being disputed would certainly explain this inordinate delay. But to more pressing business.

If the house is not on the market, I have to assume one of the Ross Morlocks is living there in a caretaker role, so I once again invite one and all who are in that area to do a drive-by and report what they see. Does anyone appear to be living there? Is there a regular car in the driveway? Are there any indications of stuff being packed up, or storage trailers in the driveway? Are lights on in the evening? You get the idea.

If you've been following this saga, you already know the address (in Lloydminster, SK) of the property in question. If you don't and want to help, drop me a note at canadiancynic@yahoo.ca and I'll provide it -- I won't produce it publicly, even though Patrick lists it in all of his court filings so it's trivially easy to find. So at this point, I really, really want to know what's going on at Casa Ross, as I'm about to sic my lawyer on this situation.

Keep those cards, letters and surveillance reports coming in.

P.S. That Patrick seems to not live at Casa Ross is problematic for him, as all of his court filings give that as the address for proper and legal service, and as that is no longer his residence, that's one reason why Patrick seems loath to proceed with any legal action against me or anyone else -- I, at least, have made it clear that the instant he tries that, I would insist he provide both me and the Court with an accurate address for service, something Patrick is clearly not prepared to do.

So Patrick's current misrepresentation of his residence address is not only an issue for him having a valid driver's licence and vehicle insurance, it's also putting a real crimp in his ability to go after anyone legally. But I'm sure he has all this under control, what with him being the smartest and baddest d00d on the Intertoobz. According to him.

A WILD AND CRAZY IDEA: I pondered for a while about this last part but I'm going with it. If the Ross estate is actually being disputed, one wonders if that has anything to do with the siblings arguing about how to dispose of the assets while protecting their own share in the face of Patrick's undischarged bankruptcy and his massive debt to me.

Perhaps the will is worded in such a way as to conceal assets to make it more difficult for me to seize Patrick's share, but that wording is making it more difficult for the rest of those hillbillies to get their hands on what's coming to them. And perhaps -- just, perhaps -- one of those siblings is running out of patience trying to accommodate Patrick's nightmarish legal situation and having to wait for their share of the assets because of Patrick. So here's my offer.

If I can be of assistance, I am inviting any of Patrick's siblings to drop me a note at canadiancynic@yahoo.ca and provide an accurate account of what is going on. In return, I will work with them to protect their share of the estate while still going after Patrick for every penny he owes me. All of this is speculative, of course, but if Patrick's siblings are currently screwed by his legal status and his jeopardizing their getting their hands on what is coming to them, I'm willing to discuss the situation.

If anyone has contact info for the siblings, you are invited to pass this on. I'm willing to be helpful but only up to a point until I run out of patience, at which time I will go after everything, regardless of whose assets get seized. That's the offer, and the clock is ticking.

Chronicles of Twatrick: Interestinger and interestinger ...

Here's a followup comment from anonymous commenter I've labeled "AC". (IMPORTANT: When I said I "edited" the previous submission, it was only to correct a couple typos and add a missing apostrophe, that sort of thing; I in no way removed any meaningful content):

[Emphasis added by CC]

I've taken your advice and hired myself a lawyer and filed a police report with the RCMP in Calgary.

My police report details the fraudulent interaction with my employer and the 9 different Facebook accounts and 7 X accounts I suspect Patrick of impersonating and using to harass me.

My lawyer has been instructed to find out where Patrick is working and where he hangs his hat because his address in Lloydminster, SK, is no longer valid. No one resides at the residence because it's part of an estate that is currently being disputed. This makes his driver's license in need of an update and his vehicle's insurance invalid because he no longer resides in Saskatchewan. Due to living out of province for more than 6 months, he would have to update his insurance tied to an Alberta residence. Everything correlating to his person is still tied to his father's Lloydminster address. Patrick isn't a full time student in Alberta thus is required to switch both. He is technically driving around Alberta with an invalid license and insurance. This has been brought to the RCMPs attention by my counsel when we filed the report.

There's a few other instances of potential fraud on Patrick's part if he's re-signed any leases in the province that were under his father's name. It's very unlikely Patrick would have been able to attain a lease for residence under his name being an undischarged bankrupt for over 8 years. Just as, if Patrick is possibly using a credit card owned by his father, as he's deceased, would constitute fraud.

Due to some of the things Patrick has said online under his own X account and if I can prove he was using any of the Facebook or X accounts I suspect him of using, I am filing a libel suit against him. I will not put up with being called a pedophile or my wife told that she's supporting a sex offender and that my children should be questioned if I've ever touched them.

If I gain any information on his employer or living situation, I will be informing the parties he's currently suing in Grande Prairie, AB. It's my understanding he hasn't updated his Statement of Claims against several entities. Another party has given me transcripts of two hearings where Patrick committed perjury stating he is not an undischarged bankrupt without a trustee. That is categorically false. I've spoken to his former trustee in Saskatchewan, and they assure me he is still in such status as of Monday afternoon.

Please ensure this is posted to your blog in it's entirety. These are my statements and mine alone, and as long as my words aren't edited in any way, you are shielded from liability. If edited, you could be considered a co-author under Canada's defamation law.

It's very important that others know how deep Patrick has dug his hole, the trouble he is in, and they should help end his cycle of abuse. Patrick is unwell and he needs help.

I will have more to say about this later. I am intrigued that the disposition of the estate is currently being disputed; I thought it seemed to be taking an inordinately long time for the house to be sold or change hands.

Anyway, things are definitely getting more interesting.

P.S. I would take issue with one of AC's points above -- that Patrick "committed perjury stating he is not an undischarged bankrupt without a trustee." I wrote about that back here. Technically, Patrick never claimed he still had a trustee; rather, he simply misled the court by failing to disclose that little tidbit, so I would be very careful about accusing Patrick of perjury. It is sufficient to point out that he clearly failed to disclose relevant information to the judge, and I would leave it at that.

P.P.S. If Patrick's vehicle insurance is indeed no longer valid, it seems like this is something that should be brought to the attention of his employer since, if Patrick is driving to job sites in an uninsured vehicle and without a valid driver's license, that could in some way make his employer liable if Patrick has an accident which results in a lawsuit -- especially if it can be shown that the employer was aware of this. (Hint, hint.)

AC is still invited to email me at canadiancynic@yahoo.ca, as there is some information I have that might be useful and I don't want to publish it where Patrick can read it.

BY THE WAY, regarding this sentence in the above: "It's very unlikely Patrick would have been able to attain a lease for residence under his name being an undischarged bankrupt for over 8 years."

Patrick has, in fact, been bankrupt for over 12 years, having filed for bankruptcy in December of 2012. Further, his trustee withdrew from his file in February of 2014, which means Patrick has been an undischarged bankrupt without a trustee for 11 years, so it's actually worse than AC describes it.

AC should also know that, without a trustee, Patrick has very likely not been making his legally-required reports to the Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy, so he is way in arrears related to his legal obligations under the bankruptcy regime. And on top of all that, he owes me around $125,000 and I have a collections order against him in the province of Saskatchewan.

Just want to make sure that AC has all this information. I'm just trying to be helpful.

SHEER SPECULATION ON MY PART, but I am intrigued by the claim that the late Ken Ross' estate is being disputed. One would have thought its disposition would be straightforward, so I wonder if the holdup is in any way related to Patrick's siblings squabbling over how to protect all those assets from being seized by me if the will shows any substantial property going to Patrick. 

What if the will dictates that the house be sold and the proceeds be divided among the siblings? Given my collection order against Patrick, do I have any legal right to step in and put a hold on that sale until I am legally assured of receiving Patrick's share of the sale price? I think it's time to check with the lawyers again. It would certainly be interesting to know what the "dispute" is all about, and whether it's tied to how Patrick's bankruptcy has jeopardized everyone else's ability to collect.

Chronicles of Twatrick: Possible identity fraud?

Here's a short followup to that last post related to an anonymous commenter describing how someone (and it's unclear who) filed a bogus complaint against him with his employer. NOTE: There is of yet no proof that this was Patrick Ross, but here's what just occurred to me upon rereading that comment, particularly this snippet [emphasis added]:

Due to posts on my Facebook page, he knows where I work. Someone has called and spoke to my main superior and lodged a false complaint. It wasn't known until after I was called in to a meeting and almost given a written warning, that it was fake. When the alleged incident took place I was in another city and couldn't have attended the accuser's business location causing issues over not purchasing products from us.

As I read this, the complaint would seem to be suggesting that the anonymous commenter ("AC") visited someone else's business and caused a commotion, apparently complaining that that company was not purchasing product from AC's employer. Is that how you read it? Because here's the problem.

Even if the bogus complaint was made anonymously, it seems that the only people who would be in the position to make such a complaint would be the owners or managers of that business; this strongly suggests that, even if the person who filed the complaint with AC's employer did not leave a name, they would have claimed to at least work for that company. Are you with me so far? And here's why that's important.

Because misrepresenting your identity for the purpose of harassment is a criminal offense in Canada called "identity fraud" (not to be confused with "identity theft"), as described here:

Note well that identify fraud does not require any attempt to steal or procure anything of value; rather, one of its characteristics (as I have highlighted) is to personate another entity simply for the purpose or harassment. So If Patrick (or someone else) called AC's employer and falsely (mis)represented themselves as a representative of that other company for the purpose of getting AC in trouble, that is absolutely textbook identity fraud according to the Criminal Code of Canada, which suggests it might be worthwhile to chase this down to see if someone committed an actual crime.

Again, this is all speculation but if Patrick Ross did indeed call AC's employer and misrepresent his identity in order to cause inconvenience to AC, that is pretty much a slam-dunk case of identity fraud, for which, uh oh ...

If I was AC, I would be calling a lawyer. And absolutely filing a police report. But that's just me.

Chronicles of Twatrick: A life swirling down the drain.

As a recent commenter looking for advice left another comment on this blog, assuming it was meant to be posted, I am going to give it some coverage here so one and all are aware what they are getting into when engaging with Lloydminster's Patrick Ross (minor editing):

I called FluidPro Oilfield Services in Calgary and they say that Patrick Ross doesn't work for them directly, but could work on their jobsites through a 3rd party contract vendor.

I posted what I said in your post to a Lloydminster forum and a woman messaged me and said she believes Patrick lives between Edmonton and hotels he gets issued near job sites he works. She knew the family and Patrick has been more than troublesome his entire life. Most jobs he was hired at in Lloydminster ended because he would harass people to the point working with him became untenable. He was released from a theatre he worked at doing small plays because he became obsessed with a female director which ended with the police getting involved.

She told me Patrick has had trouble with the police his entire life for harassing people including when he went to school at the University of Alberta. I explained everything I've gone through with Patrick online; she conveyed her sympathies but told me he's done far worse to others and to expect more as I ignore him.

I must ask again how he's never been criminally charged to this point in his life. He has a long and sordid history of harassment and online stalking, and people have wanted to press charges. Do you know if he has a documented mental illness or disability that makes pursuing criminal charges against him unviable?

Due to everything Patrick has done, I've closed my accounts on X and Facebook. It became useless to try and figure out if he was impersonating one of my friends on those networks. It was also apparent he's getting accounts that have followers and history on those networks to use to harass me. I've been told people can purchase these accounts for as little as $4 online.

Patrick has a very unhealthy obsession with people that out his nonsense opinions on X. When he's publicly challenged and loses, he turns into the worst temper tantrum toddler in the history of mankind. Before reading your blog, I assumed he was a teenager who liked trolling people, but I learned he's over 40 years old. The worst mistake I've made in my lifetime was engaging with him online. Had I known this is what that interaction would lead to, I would have simply left him to speak his horrible takes to the 30 or so people that view his trash.

If you can offer any assistance with ridding this man from my life, please convey it. Due to posts on my Facebook page, he knows where I work. Someone has called and spoke to my main superior and lodged a false complaint. It wasn't known until after I was called in to a meeting and almost given a written warning, that it was fake. When the alleged incident took place I was in another city and couldn't have attended the accuser's business location causing issues over not purchasing products from us.

Patrick is invading my life. Most times I can't prove it's him because contact has become indirect through other parties. I'm stumped how to untangle this mess. Would an apology to him help at all? I still have an avenue to stop the deletion of my X account and could post an apology if that would appease him. I have 9 days remaining to unlock my account.

I'm not sure what advice to give, other than to suggest that calling one's employer and lodging a fake complaint absolutely falls under the definition of defamation, so I would file a police report ASAP and, if you're feeling ambitious, get legal advice. I can give you all of the contact information I have for Patrick; drop me a note at canadiancynic@yahoo.ca.

P.S. I'd like the contact info for the woman you were talking to; invite her to drop me an email if she is so inclined.

P.P.S. It would be useful to get the name of that third-party vendor that Patrick works through; if FluidPro refuses to provide it, that's why you should file a police report -- so you have the weight of a police report to compel disclosure. Having a genuine police report in hand will make everything you do far more difficult to ignore.

Chronicles of Twatrick: The creepy stalking continues.

From a recent post, here's a comment that deserves wider coverage, and I'll address it on the weekend. In the meantime, I know exactly what this person is talking about -- Patrick has a long and creepy history of stalking and doxxing people he doesn't like.

More later.

I recently had an unfortunate interaction with Patrick Ross on X where he was outright lying about an issue and I called him out on it. Things escalated pretty quickly after Patrick started throwing out data points which only proved his position was wrong, but he somehow did mental gymnastics to convey he was right. He wasn't. It was embarrassing for him and that's when the harassment started. Now he's creating accounts to keep the conversation going because I blocked him from interacting with me.

How does someone get rid of this guy? I've read everything you've written about Patrick along with other blogs that I can only assume are friends of yours or people who've had to deal with him in the past. I don't understand how he's never been charged with online harassment or stalking, nor do I understand how he's able to get away with not paying damages to you while filing dishonest lawsuits against others. As you've likely have the most experience dealing with Patrick, I come hat in hand looking for advice.

Instead of emailing you, I'm asking here because I'm sure someone else is dealing with the same situation and your advice could prove extremely valuable. Patrick has now invaded my Facebook account and before long I have no doubt he'll start attacking my wife and family. He escalates so quickly and he's extremely devious by impersonating people I've friended on different platforms. It's gotten to the point I don't trust that I'm talking to the person I should be talking to, or if it's Patrick impersonating another individual. He's attained information that I've only said in private communications with others and used it against me. I've tried contacting the RCMP but they've less than helpful. A Constable I spoke to in Grande Prairie who's dealt with Patrick in the past informed me that it's his belief Patrick is extremely mentally ill and he's not seeking treatment to mitigate his behavior issues.

My second question to you is, you've been chasing Patrick for a decade. What chances do you give yourself to extract damages from Patrick for the entire amount he owes you within his lifetime? He doesn't look healthy by any stretch of the imagination and while he purports to working out at gyms, just walking in the building to sit down to ogle women shouldn't classify as a workout? Does it? He's far too obese and eats a disgusting calorie buffet for a diet to ever effect any meaningful weight loss on his frame. With every meal he's shortening his lifespan.

From your blog the appearance is that Patrick owes you over $120,000. He doesn't appear to have any appreciable assets to seize and doesn't have ties to anyone meaningful in his life that could possibly help you gain information regarding where he hangs his hat or is employed. From the outside looking in, and you could certainly have information you haven't released to the public, what odds do you realistically give yourself to get $40,000? $50,000? $75,000? $100,000? Full payment from Patrick? Personally from everything I've about the man, I'd put your odds around the same as 3 major lottery wins in a month. I'm not trying to be negative to your plight, but Patrick leads a nomadic lifestyle largely based on where he can reliably watch wrestling each week or a free UFC pay per view. Pinning him down to allow agencies to extract funds from him seems impossible.

Last question is, how come no one that Patrick is currently suing has filed for dismissal to bring him before a court? Wouldn't that be the quickest way to have Patrick atone for his past actions and pay all awards you've been granted?

I know that was a long read but I don't understand how Patrick has gotten away with this behavior for so long. Is this simply how bad our legal system in Canada has become? Has he fallen through the cracks? The entire life of Patrick Ross baffles the law abiding minds of regular folks like me.

Here is one suggestion that might be effective: It's possible that Patrick still works for FluidPRO Oilfield Services; you should consider calling their Human Resources department and filing an official complaint against Patrick, describing in detail Patrick's harassment. (I would also specifically ask for a contact in the legal department.)

I'll have more to say this weekend, but I think you should start there.

P.S. If anyone has more current information about where Patrick works these days, let the rest of us know.

Chronicles of Twatrick: Happy new year and happy interestversary!

It is a brand new year and, more importantly, we're now well into a new year wherein undischarged bankrupt and vexatious litigant Patrick "I'm smart enough to be my own lawyer" Ross has still failed to proceed with his utterly meritless August, 2022 defamation action against me, so here's my plan.

While the courts are generally accommodating of self-represented dingbats, they do eventually run out of patience, so I'm thinking that I will let this molder until August of this year, making it a full three years since Patrick filed, then failed to follow through. It will be remarkably similar to the situation wherein Patrick filed a worthless appeal of his 2014 bankruptcy ruling, then let it sit for three and a half years, whereupon I filed to have it dismissed as abandoned, and wherein the judge ruled that Patrick's 3.5 year delay in proceeding with that appeal was both "inordinate" and "inexcusable" and granted my motion.

So it seems that three years is a good metric for what a court considers just wasting someone's and the court's time, and it's highly unlikely that Patrick is going to do anything about this since, as we have already established, he would have to disclose his whereabouts and contact information and, given how many people are looking for him, I doubt he's ready to do that.

Finally, I am always in the market for the latest scoop on where Patrick is hanging and where he is working (Fluid Pro? elsewhere?), so keep those cards and letters coming in, kids.

Oh, right ... given this ruling from a few years back, Patrick now owes me in the neighbourhood of $125,000:

an amount increasing by several hundreds per month, and that doesn't include what he still owes pursuant to his Conditional Discharge Order (another $25,000 or so).

I'm guessing that 2025 is not going to be a fun year for Patrick.

P.S. It's worth pointing out how Patrick, who once fancied himself as an up-and-coming journalist and online pundit, is easily one of the most dishonest human beings on the planet.

Years ago (before he turned his life into total shit), Patrick contributed to at least one online right-wing rag, and clearly saw himself as a budding conservative provocateur. To this day, he describes himself as a "podcaster" (HA HA!!) and "online political commentator," so it's mirth-making to see just how sleazy he can be.

Regarding the recent Mark Carney limo hatchet job, despite all evidence to the contrary, Patrick descends into pure derangement:

So let's dissect this, shall we? First, it's been established that there is absolutely nothing linking Carney to the limo that appeared briefly at his presser; even the limo company insists they have no idea who ordered the car, but Patrick -- being the principled investigative journo that he is -- is uninterested in a total lack of evidence. But it gets worse.

See, it's also established that the limo showed up about an hour before Carney's presser to pick someone up. Given that the presser was still an hour off, what possible sense would it make for Mark Carney to order a limo to pick him up at that location before his presser had even started!?!?

This is the level of Patrick's dishonesty, so it's entertaining to remember that he once upon a time had grand designs of being a popular and influential online source of conservative punditry; instead, here he is, spewing trivially refutable nonsense out of a sense of childish petulance.

If Patrick ever wants to improve his lot in life, he might start by not being so much of an obvious hack.

Chronicles of Twatrick: Nothing really new at the moment.

I'll have more to say in a couple of days at the next interestversary but, in the meantime, if you haven't seen Patrick Ross' moist panty adoration of quack and grifter Dr. Jordan Peterson, well, have at it. There is something amusing in watching a 40-something loser wax poetic about Jungian psychology and archetypes when he couldn't even get a simple sociology degree after seven years, and his life can be reasonably described as a dumpster fire of a train wreck of a plane crash.

In any event, check back in a couple of days.

Chronicles of Twatrick: Jordan Peterson fanboyishness activate!

As a short followup to the last post (wherein I refer the long-suffering reader to a tedious 18-minute bromance of Patrick Ross directed at deranged quack Dr. Jordan Peterson), there is another savage beatdown of Peterson, which I refer to here.

I would normally say that it is beyond comprehension that any sentient life form could take Peterson seriously, but this is Patrick Ross we're talking about.

P.S. In the midst of a gaggle of tendentious and meaningless Jordan Peterson quotes, it seems that our Patrick might pay close attention to quote 52:

“To suffer terribly and to know yourself as the cause: that is Hell.”

I guess even the good doctor gets it right once in a while.

I can only imagine that this latest pathetically sad podcast from undischarged bankrupt and Dr. Jordan Peterson fan boi Patrick "Stud Muffin Chick Magnet" Ross is aimed at me, given that I have on occasion pointed out how the good doctor is an ignorant quack of the highest order. As of this typing, I made it all of 1:13 into Patrick's podcast before I had to stop -- perhaps I'll watch the rest of it later after drinking heavily.

I could go on at length about how Peterson is a purveyor of pseudo-scientific horseshit of the highest order, but I will say simply that, for someone who is convinced that Jordan Peterson is the answer to living a full and happy life, Patrick's life is a train wreck of a leaking septic tank of a dumpster fire, which might make him ponder whether Peterson's life advice is really doing him any good. All evidence to the contrary.

P.S. There are numerous brutal eviscerations of Dr. Peterson online; here is just one of them. I could supply a dozen more just as savage and on-point.

OH, DEAR GOD ... I sucked it up and am viewing the rest of Patrick's unwatchable podcast and he makes an utter fool of himself starting at the 12:50 mark by insisting that Dr. Benzo Boy must be taken seriously because "he has taught at Harvard!" This is particularly ironic since Patrick himself makes it clear that a rhetorical appeal to authority is a logical no-no:

And yet, there's Patrick, falling face-first into his own discredited argument. It is not a mystery why Patrick, even after seven years, failed to get a degree from the U of Alberta.

BONUS TRACK: While trying to go all intellectual, Patrick informs us that he is currently slogging his way through Peterson's latest pompously-titled train wreck of a tome, "We Who Wrestle With God." Mercifully, The Guardian saves us the trouble of caring what it says. But this revelation by Patrick gives us the opportunity to check if Peterson's advice imparts any practical value since, once Patrick finishes it, we can check in on whether Patrick begins to behave any more like an actual grown-up and take responsibility for the shitfest that is his life, or whether he continues to act like a petulant, vindictive 12-year-old.

So let's give Patrick some time to finish the book, at which point we might have some confirmation as to whether Dr. Peterson's life advice is worth the paper it's Crayola'ed on.
